The papers in this volume explore the issues of reason and belief in the age of Peter Abelard (1079-1142), focusing on the achievement both of his peers and of his little-known teacher, Roscelin of Compiegne. They synthesize the author's research into the dynamism of thinking at that time.
This volume continues the "Authors of the Middle Ages" series. It discusses the life, writings and influence of Peter Abelard, and the career as well as works of Honorius Augustodunensis.
This new edition offers fascinating insights into one of the most celebrated love affairs of the Middle Ages. A new chapter charts the debate about the letters and offers fresh evidence to attribute them to Abelard and Heloise. The complete Latin text is reproduced with an annotated translation by Chiavaroli and Mews.
